Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems
This probably isn't a problem with the fink side of the tetex distribution, but since we are discussing it, I thought I'd try asking anyway. I can get perfectly good landscape ps output from my latex document, but I can't get landscape pdf output from it. I'm on all the latest 2.0-5 tetex, and ghostscript 8.0. Here's what I'm doing, lets call my document Land.tex: I'm making slides for a presentation, note the preamble starts \documentclass[a4paper,landscape]{slides} I run latex as usual: latex Land To view it as a dvi, I use the flags xdvi -paper a4r Land To convert it to ps I use the flags dvips -t landscape -o Land.ps Land This works fine, viewed in gv it comes out upside down until you "swap landscape" but that's not a problem. But dvipdf and ps2pdf don't have a flag for landscape! I tried using the paper size flags -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=842 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=595 and that turns a4 the paper sideways OK, but does not put the images in the right place on the paper (it is either off to the left with ps2pdf, or starts off the top of the page with dvipdf). I'm viewing the pdf output in gv. I've tried a bunch of other things too, and waded through a lot of the gs docs, but nothing useful came out of it. Feel free to tell me to shut up and go elsewhere if this is out of place on this list...

I think it is not completely out of topic here, because it is an old problem, and the possible solutions depend heavily on the precise version of tetex installed. I have found a method that works for me, but I don't pretend it is the most professional one.

It lives in ~/Library/texmf/dvips/misc/ and is actually a symlink to one of two different files depending on which machine I am. On the machine with Fink's recent tetex, the slides need to be turned by 90 degrees, and landscape.ps points to the file landscape_90.ps: landscape_90.ps % /_sys_showpage /showpage load def /showpage { [{ThisPage} <> /PUT pdfmark _sys_showpage }bind def For earlier versions of tetex, the "270" had to be "90", because they turned the other way. On another machine with GW's teTeX, the slides are upside down, and landscape.ps points to landscape_180.ps which is the following: landscape_180.ps % /bop-hook { gsave clippath pathbbox grestore 4 dict begin /ury exch def /urx exch def /lly exch def /llx exch def 180 rotate urx neg lly -2 mul ury sub translate end } def % Then I use ps2pdf without any decorations ps2pdf13 TEXT.ps and it works. Don't ask me why :-) One perpetual problem I am having have with tetex updates (nothing to do with landscape slides) is that each time the default voffset changes. After almost every update, my text is either 1 inch too high or 1 inch too low on the page, and not even the same on different machines.

Ususally, when the "node exists" error occurs, the package just isn't installed properly. It may be that the deb file that you have for system-tetex isn't right.

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems
A way of getting the pdf in landscape format is to use the "geometry" package in latex with the landscape option, i.e. \usepackage[a4paper,landscape]{geometry} Then use your same commands to produce the file Land.ps and then just ps2pdf Land.ps. This should give Land.pdf in landscape format.

Any hint about this issue? 2) Would I gain any performance improvement recompiling them after installing Dec02 Dev update?

Oh dear, this is clearly a seriously advanced black art. And I'm only a beginner in it it would seem... Your method does not work for me. If I replace my preamble with yours and follow your recipe I get a couple of latex errors (it doesn't like the a4paper option and mutters about magnification), and end up with a pdf file containing a couple of blank pages, then my slides start on page 3, but they are about a6 size, correct orientation, with a black box around them, sitting in the middle left of an a4 portrait page! (At least, I trust that isn't what you thought I'd get?!) If I don't replace my preamble, then your landscape_90.ps does nothing, I get a portrait page with cropped-on-the-right landscape content. If I use the file /sw/share/ghostscript/8.0/lib/landscap.ps instead of yours, I get the contents rotated by 90 degrees so it would fit portrait, but also offset so the bottom edge is in the middle of a portrait a4 page and cropped on the top (now right) at the edge of an a4 portrait page. But I get it in a _landscape_ a4 page so it is also cropped on the right (now bottom) edge! (But maybe I haven't commented/uncommented the right things in that landscap.ps file yet...I'll work on it.) Gawd...anyone else want to pile in?

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems
Hi, I can not test it on my mac right now, but I just verified that the solution I suggested works with tetex on a digital unix machine... It seems to work at least with the article, slides and seminar document classes. What I do is the following. I have in the preamble just \documentclass{article} (or slides or seminar) \usepackage[a4paper,landscape]{geometry} (no landscape option in documentclass). By the way, geometry is a very nice package, it lets you very easily modify the page layout with other options or just choose `letterpaper' instead of `a4paper'. Then run: latex file.tex dvips -t landscape -o file.ps file ps2pdf file.ps (for some reason with the seminar class the -t landscape option in dvips is not even needed). The file.pdf I get is in landscape format. Indeed it shows up in portrait orientation in gv, but I just have to select seascape from the menu. I don't know why it's not working for you... I'll try it on the mac later.

[Fink-users] landscape pdf problems
Ok, I'm adding my probably useless contribution... I thought that seminar doses not play very well with pdflatex. How about using the 'powersem.cls' class and the 'fixseminar.sty' package from the texpower bundle? Say: \documentclass[landscape]{powersem} %%load other packages here... \usepackage{fixseminar} Powersem is a wrapper to seminar and fixseminar should be there to fix the seminar-pdflatex interaction oddities.

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems
Ok, I did the test on the mac and I confirm that using the geometry package works for me, but I also seem to have problems with fink's gv. Both the .ps and the .pdf files I get don't show up correctly in gv. However they are indeed in landscape format. I can visualise the pdf correctly using xpdf, acrobat reader and preview. The ps shows up in landscape format in MacGhostViewX. I am using Gerben Wierda's tetex and I have both fink's and GW's ghostscript. I think that gv is using fink's version whereas GW's version should be used by MacGhostViewX.

[Fink-users] popt dev package?
Hi, I'm attempting to build Ximian Evolution under OS X 10.2.4 with the latest devtools and Fink 0.5.1. I'm working on one of the dependencies called 'soup', and it is looking for the file 'popt.h'. I have installed both popt and popt-shlibs, but neither include header files. There doesn't seem to be a popt-dev package available. Is there a reason for that? No one has time? I'd be happy to help, but I'm relatively new to Fink and have never built debs before. :) Thanks, Eric http://redbaron.paunix.org SDF Public Access UNIX System --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users

It already has the proper dependency on "popt", which contains the headers. If you mean you're porting it yourself, well, uh, it's already in Fink unstable. =) --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users

[Fink-users] kontour
I installed the full kde bundle from unstable. Most things that I've tried seem to be working. However, I'm having trouble with kontour. I can draw polygons and ovals, but I cannot use the pencil tool to draw. And whenever I try to convert an oval to paths, it crashes. I'm not running KDE, rather, I just start kicker directly and launch apps from the menu. Also, I've noticed that the apps are not catching ctrl-clicks as right clicks. For example, kbounce is unplayable without a three-button mouse, since you need to right click to change the directions. -Rich- --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
[Fink-users] Can't install lyx and xdvi after update-all
I updated my dist, and that solved my problem with Can't download ldp.dsl-1.10 that I posted on 2/15/03. I am not sure why that solved the problem. Possibly there was another file that needed updating? Since then I got a new version of Gerben Wierda's tetex dist. I removed my other packages dependent on system-tetex as well as system-tetex, and then reinstalled system-tetex (current v. 20010808-9). When I tried to reinstall lyx and xdvi, I could not install them! Here is fink output: [Gary-K-Olsons-Computer:~]:-bash:558$: fink install lyx sudo /sw/bin/fink install lyx sudo: /var/run/sudo writable by non-owner (040766), should be mode 0700 We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these two things: #1) Respect the privacy of others. #2) Think before you type. Password: Information about 2186 packages read in 5 seconds. fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The candidates: (1) xdvi: Display TeX .dvi files under the X Window System (2) tetex-base: Base programs for a teTeX installation Pick one: [1] The following package will be installed or updated: lyx The following additional package will be installed: xdvi Do you want to continue?

So I installed that. Then I tried to install lyx and fink wanted to install xdvi and I got the same messages? How do I get out of this catch22? I don't believe I have done anything that I did not do before in January when I installed fink on Jaguar. I hope someone sees my error. Thanks ahead of time.
